I DID IT!

Met some incredible ladies from the GDT......we even made it onto the CTV Toronto 6 oclock news last night.....hope I can still find it on the web.

43 minutes 46 seconds.....and believe it or not, plans to repeat it again in April! Am I nuts? I'll be honest, the first 40-45 flights just about killed me.....there are 144 in the "offical climb" with a few to get to the start point and 100 more afterwards.......by the time I got to half way, I had a system.....and it worked. I know now I should have paced myself a bit better in the beginning - then I would have been less tired and able to shave off a few.

I'm encouraged, I'm on top of the world!

My hubby and our two youngest kids were there to cheer me on!

and I've made some incredible friends from the GDT! Can't wait to meet them face-to-face again!

About me

I have the best of both worlds - I have an incredibly interesting career in a smaller city in the banana belt of Canada.....and I live the life in rural southwestern Ontario on the farm with my husband.

We have four grown-up kids between us...they are all amazing in their own way!

I am now 56 with exactly 50 lbs to lose - and it's time to take care of me......one day, one moment, one action at a time!
